PlllNTED FOR THE TRUSTEES OF THE BRITISH MUSEUM: LONDON, 1871. I.ONDON : F.. NEWMAN, TEINTER, DEVONSHIRE STREET, RISHOrSGATE. PREFACE. The object of the present Catalogue is to give a complete List of all the genera and species of Hemiptera Heteroptera known to exist in the collections of European and American Entomologists. The letters a, b, c, See., after the species, denote the specimens now contained in the British Museum, followed by the habitat and the mode in which each of them was obtained ; and the absence of these letters indicates the species which are desiderata, and there- fore desirable to be procured for the collection.
